Firenze
by Sara Byers
And then she wrote,
of the bridges and the stars and the flames,
of the desperation in the eyes of travelers,
and the peaceful sweetness
when the air hits her tongue,
of the moonlit masquerade of bells and sirens,
and the quest to discover what’s next,
she wrote of sun beams and hilltops and bibliotecas,
of soups and discos and morning rants,
she wrote of everything she had been
and all she hoped to become,
her imagination carried her to the morning
when her eyes would open
to a framed picture of piazzale michelangelo
hanging on her wall.
